Am I Doing Something Wrong?

Ah need mod approval for posting? Just posted link to kit that I bought.

With those clearomisers, it is very important to not have overfilled them. Overfilling them can lead to leaks (which means sticky hands), poor connection between the battery and the clearmiser resulting in miss-fire or no-fire, or a flooded coil. Coils that are too wet, can not heat up enough to create vapour, and for some odd awful reason create a throat hit that can kind of sting.

Under-filling or a dry coil can kind of cause the same thing, burnt taste, little to no vapour.

Suggest that you Try clicking the battery 5 more times first, sometimes they are all ready turned on and you can inadvertently turn them off without even knowing. The button should also light up when you press it.


On another thought, it is very important that you dont clamp these batteries down tight onto the charge or clearomiser. Doing so cant break the contact resulting in a broken battery. Take a your battery and clearo apart and on the top side of the battery you will see a centre pin (either silver or gold) take a toothpick of pin and gentle wiggle it upwards a little bit, reattach and try again, if still a no go, try charging it again, if that doesnt work, get in touch with Vape Escape for a replacement.

When you press the button is it illuminating?

Flippin eck that was a throat hit and a half!!!! lol

What you just suggested Kulr has fixed it. Looks like the battery had sunk a bit - now I've wiggled it up it works :-)

Now I'm finding the throat hit a little harsher than my roll ups (using the liquorice tabac from Grizwalds) but I suppose I'll get used to it.

Whats the MG?


Griz's mixes are higher in PG, which create TH... remember, dont vape it like you smoked. Nice slow draws into your mouth then inhale. That should help.


And stay hydrated!!

got the pick n mix - which is 20mg.

I've worked out if I let a little of the vapour out before inhaling it's not so strong as well

Thanks for your help Kulr - it's much appreciated

I know it's basic and no offense meant, but have you tried a different atomiser/clearomiser/tank on it?
Also, not sure if it should on that model, but does the button light up when pressed?

Sounds like a dodgy coil or a power failure somewhere

Bit late to the party there! Didn't notice there was another page

Glad you got it sorted

thanks now happily puffing away - quite like the liquorice tabac and golden burginia from Grizwalds.

Just hope this replaces the need for stinky cigarettes! I have no tobacco left to make a roll up, though the nearest shop is only a couple of minutes walk away
